United States of America, Born July 4, 1776, Died Nov 4, 2008, Suicide (Vanity)

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the Presidential election:

* Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29

* Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000

* Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million

* Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

President 9/10: "My fellow citizens in the 57 states, I am pleased to tell you
that I just signed legislation which outlaws the United States of America forever.
The bombing begins in five minutes."

Amen. The USA is only dead when the last American patriot dies or gives up. Until then, this country is merely sick, and patriots are the immune system.

Not sure why you are posting a map from 8 months before the election.

Duke Leto Atreides: "Knowing where the trap is–that’s the first step in evading it."

Duke Paulus Atreides: "If you surrender, you have already lost.
If you refuse to give up, though, no matter the odds against you, at least you have succeeded in trying."
